A chronology of privacy breaches...

Headup What a staggering number of individuals who have had the privacy of their personally-identifiable information compromised:

    88,795,619

This information comes from the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse and presents a chronology of breaches since the Choicepoint incident in February, 2005. 

I don't remember seeing or hearing anything about most of these incidents...imagine the many more than none of us do!

Wow.
